I'm not actually partially schizophrenic, hence why I said I didn't mean it in brackets.
I do have what could be considered as a personality disorder though. As back when I was still struggling with the whole seemingly perverse desires not mixing with my main personality well, and also the desires and wants seeming to spring up randomly and conflict. I deduced that logically everyone is made up of conflicting ambitions, desires and reason to some extent; hence why people say 'I don't know what I was thinking' or 'I must have made a bad decision'. When in fact they are excersising different parts of the id, superid, ego which conflict to some extent.
Thusly I decided to box all mine up nicely and pull them out at will like some bastardised magic spell or pokemon.

Proper constructive dismissal, you say?
The Malfunction and the Spatula Andy are okay fonts, but in the main you have splattered too many fonts onto a dreary and mottled and slightly DPM background.
You need the fonts to stand out more and perhaps to use fewer fonts (fonts are not cool in themselves if you do not make them yourself).
This looks like a lot of fliers I see about, but it is just text on an image and I would have to say that it lacked for professional design.
I am being very harsh here, but you did ask for honesty. I am willing to lie if that is preferable?

Personally
I would desaturate the bg a little and make the text other than the title all one font.
EDIT also, perhaps take away the coloured outlines on text. for example, the venue info could easily be just white text a little smaller so it would stand out in colour but not take away from the band names
things alway look fucking rubbish if you use more than, say, 3 fonts
what thiswasmyclone* said too
it looks like you just went for the most interesting looking fonts and colours, rather than deciding on an overall look
make it readable, decide on a layout, and choose a colour scheme
maybe sketch a few ideas out on paper first

Oh,
and i don't know how professional it is to say spazz on a flyer. I know there's no doubt a band called something like that out there, but it's not very PR friendly.
ie. someone asked him to mock up a design. But you're right, if it's for a proper job and the band name is made up then it would have to be flawless design before you start inserting that level of homour
but i think that a record background is a bit stereotypical, if i was any good at anything i would suggest something else but im not, sorry, but i still think it looks good!

Are these the fonts that the bands themselves use?
Else change 'em to a single one.
Also the background isn't sufficiently contrasting with the text-- it harldy jumps out at you. As it seems everyone else is saying these things too, I'll return to lurking for the moment! : )
Edit: On the plus side, I like what you did with the text at the top, and it does look like almost every other flyer like that out there (there are pros and cons to that...).
for a malfunction . . . I like it . . . but would still heed some of the advice . . .

I reckon
you should leave it as is, pretend it's real, and tell them that your client specifically requested an eye-melting neon Nu-Rave look or something. Then start again on something else completely different using everyone's advice in this thread.
If you don't have the foggiest do you think they will?
too many fonts used...and they're not that legible it doesn't give me a feel of what the night will be like. put your own mark on it...it looks like a thousand other flyers that are churned out without a thought about what the night is about.
it looks crowded..and center the text
or talk a lot of shite and blag your way into it...good luck
and look at other styles of flyers for inspiration...but don't rip them off ;) [Gig Flyers]

It's basically daily updates of design portfolios and bits they like. I'm quite new to the whole graphic design thing and I've found it really useful in terms of seeing what other people are doing.
I'd agree with the fewer fonts things on your flyer and I'd also suggest thinking about heirarchy in that my eye doesn't naturally follow the text down the flyer.

What everyone else said
but I also feel there are a few too many colours. And if you're going for a busy background then I'd stick to simpler fonts. This looks way too busy.

Don't just limit the number of fonts
Change the size, also. I would make "Malfunction" larger and put "indie night" closer to it, as if it were part of the logo (possibly right underneath "Malfunction" and to the right). Make the outline of "indie night" match the colors in "Malfunction" to make it seem like one piece --a logo.
Put "live music featuring" closer to the band names, and make the names/logos smaller.
I think the time and date should be closer to each other.
Remember the four basic rules of design and layout:
Contrast Repetition Allignment Proximity

once you have a tablet that has proper pen pressure sensitivity and learn how to make the brushes to suit it's surprisingly easy. They do take an average of 3 hours to do but just patience really.

i have no idea if this will get approved, i think they had the usual sort of thing knocked up with clipart and a few crap photos of bouncy castles and face painter in mind. but once you've seen one of them you've seen 'em all. i thought i'd try them with something a bit fluffier.

no, this is a genuine work in progress

not much of a graphic design bloke myself. But I used to
bang a bird that claimed to be ( a bloke? no, a graphic artist )
The main thing I remember about fonts is a number one rule. Don't use too many typefaces ( rarely more than 2 ) as it very quickly confuses the eye. Also consider if they have to print it then what the costs might be using a gamut of colours. Oh yeah, remember to be working in CMYK mode with proof colours on or it could all look very different when it comes back from the printers.
